If I may say, there are those, who haven't a clue or idea what hell is or about.
For one thing hell is not a place of torment, As people like to think or say it is.
If hell is a place of torment as people will say and think it is,
Then Christ Jesus didn't do a very good job of defeating hell and destroying hell.
The Lord Jesus Christ overcame Hell by means of the bodily Resurrection.
After He rose from the dead He promised that all people will also one day rise from the dead. This is the "free gift" mentioned in the scriptures.
A prophet by the name of Jacob explained it thusly,
"O the wisdom of God, his mercy and grace! For behold, if the flesh should rise no more our spirits must become subject to that angel who fell from before the presence of the Eternal God, and became the devil, to rise no more.
And our spirits must have become like unto him, and we become devils, angels to a devil, to be shut out from the presence of our God, and to remain with the father of lies, in misery, like unto himself; yea, to that being who beguiled our first parents, who transformeth himself nigh unto an angel of light, and stirreth up the children of men unto secret combinations of murder and all manner of secret works of darkness.
O how great the goodness of our God, who prepareth a way for our escape from the grasp of this awful monster; yea, that monster, death and hell, which I call the death of the body, and also the death of the spirit." (2 Nephi 9:8-10)
Hell is not a place, but rather a "state of existence". When the willfully wicked die, their spirits suffer from the memory of their sins.
The prophet Alma told his son about an experience he had as a youth, when he was very rebellious and sought to destroy the church of God. As he had been travelling with some friends, an angel appeared to them and told Alma that unless he sought his own destruction he would no more try to destroy God's church.
With this pronouncement Alma fell down and for three days it appeared as if he were dead. He explained his experience to his son,
"But I was racked with eternal torment, for my soul was harrowed up to the greatest degree and racked with all my sins.
Yea, I did remember all my sins and iniquities, for which I was tormented with the pains of hell; yea, I saw that I had rebelled against my God, and that I had not kept his holy commandments.
Yea, and I had murdered many of his children, or rather led them away unto destruction; yea, and in fine so great had been my iniquities, that the very thought of coming into the presence of my God did rack my soul with inexpressible horror.
Oh, thought I, that I could be banished and become extinct both soul and body, that I might not be brought to stand in the presence of my God, to be judged of my deeds.
And now, for three days and for three nights was I racked, even with the pains of a damned soul." (Alma 36:12-16)
These wicked souls will suffer in this manner until the time of their Resurrection. Alma, on the other hand, was able to overcome this suffering an receive forgiveness. He devoted the remainder of his life to serving the Lord.
"And it came to pass that as I was thus racked with torment, while I was harrowed up by the memory of my many sins, behold, I remembered also to have heard my father prophesy unto the people concerning the coming of one Jesus Christ, a Son of God, to atone for the sins of the world.
Now, as my mind caught hold upon this thought, I cried within my heart: O Jesus, thou Son of God, have mercy on me, who am in the gall of bitterness, and am encircled about by the everlasting chains of death.
And now, behold, when I thought this, I could remember my pains no more; yea, I was harrowed up by the memory of my sins no more.
And oh, what joy, and what marvelous light I did behold; yea, my soul was filled with joy as exceeding as was my pain!
Yea, I say unto you, my son, that there could be nothing so exquisite and so bitter as were my pains. Yea, and again I say unto you, my son, that on the other hand, there can be nothing so exquisite and sweet as was my joy." (Alma 36:17-21)
Hell is a temporary state of existence for those who willfully rebel against God and His Christ.
